While his closest rivals had to preserve appetite in a quarrel for feat during a final laps, a Audi motorist was means to continue to conflict and pass a heading Mahindra, driven by Pascal Wehrlein, with a overwhelming overtaking scheme only before a finish line.

At a end, it was about removing a overtaking maneuvers right, since it’s intensely formidable to pass on this lane in Mexico City. we swept past Oliver Rowland when he dismissed adult his Attack Mode. After that, Pascal Wehrlein shielded his position really aggressively. Still, we managed to pass him in a crazy final path and measure victory. My adrenaline spin was intensely high and we could frequency trust that it worked. Thank we to everybody during Audi Sport who worked so tough to build such a good car.”

Such a tighten competition is not good for my heart. Still, there will be outrageous celebrations tonight. Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler is back!”
